Machu Picchu After the Rain Photo

Photographer’s Note

I was sorting through negative scans and found this image. This is a very popular shot at Machu Picchu. In truth, this is a cropping from a 6x6 frame. I had a lot of empty white space at the top. Sadly, this is one of the last viable shots I took with my Pentacon 6 before it died. I still haven't gotten it back from the shop! Aside from cropping all I did was a bit of color correction and a ton of dust removal. Let me know what you think.

Even though is a well known place, I like very much this shot because is very detailed and the colours are very well balanced.
Congratulations

Hi Hubert,
Though the cropping took away some of the mountain top, I like this photo. You are more focussed on the subject which is ruins.

Thanks for sharing with us.

Thanks
Anil
